URI::Parser

class that Parses String’s into URI’s

It contains a Hash set of patterns and Regexp’s that match and validate.

Attributes

pattern[R]

The Hash of patterns.

see also URI::Parser.initialize_pattern

regexp[R]

The Hash of Regexp

see also URI::Parser.initialize_regexp

Public Class Methods

new(opts = {}) click to toggle source

Synopsis ↑

URI::Parser.new([opts])

Args ↑

The constructor accepts a hash as options for parser. Keys of options are pattern names of URI components and values of options are pattern strings. The constructor generetes set of regexps for parsing URIs.

You can use the following keys:

* :ESCAPED (URI::PATTERN::ESCAPED in default)
* :UNRESERVED (URI::PATTERN::UNRESERVED in default)
* :DOMLABEL (URI::PATTERN::DOMLABEL in default)
* :TOPLABEL (URI::PATTERN::TOPLABEL in default)
* :HOSTNAME (URI::PATTERN::HOSTNAME in default)

Examples ↑

p = URI::Parser.new(:ESCAPED => "(?:%[a-fA-F0-9]{2}|%u[a-fA-F0-9]{4})")
u = p.parse("http://example.jp/%uABCD") #=> #<URI::HTTP:0xb78cf4f8 URL:http://example.jp/%uABCD>
URI.parse(u.to_s) #=> raises URI::InvalidURIError

s = "http://examle.com/ABCD"
u1 = p.parse(s) #=> #<URI::HTTP:0xb78c3220 URL:http://example.com/ABCD>
u2 = URI.parse(s) #=> #<URI::HTTP:0xb78b6d54 URL:http://example.com/ABCD>
u1 == u2 #=> true
u1.eql?(u2) #=> false

Public Instance Methods

escape( str ) click to toggle source
escape( str, unsafe )

Args ↑

str

String to make safe

unsafe

Regexp to apply. Defaults to self.regexp

Description ↑

constructs a safe String from str, removing unsafe characters, replacing them with codes.

 
               # File uri/common.rb, line 299
def escape(str, unsafe = @regexp[:UNSAFE])
  unless unsafe.kind_of?(Regexp)
    # perhaps unsafe is String object
    unsafe = Regexp.new("[#{Regexp.quote(unsafe)}]", false)
  end
  str.gsub(unsafe) do
    us = $&
    tmp = ''
    us.each_byte do |uc|
      tmp << sprintf('%%%02X', uc)
    end
    tmp
  end.force_encoding(Encoding::US_ASCII)
end
extract( str ) click to toggle source
extract( str, schemes )
extract( str, schemes ) {|item| block }

Args ↑

str

String to search

schemes

Patterns to apply to str

Description ↑

Attempts to parse and merge a set of URIs If no block given , then returns the result, else it calls block for each element in result.

see also #make_regexp

 
               # File uri/common.rb, line 261
def extract(str, schemes = nil, &block)
  if block_given?
    str.scan(make_regexp(schemes)) { yield $& }
    nil
  else
    result = []
    str.scan(make_regexp(schemes)) { result.push $& }
    result
  end

               # File uri/common.rb, line 335
def inspect
  @@to_s.bind(self).call
end
join(*uris) click to toggle source

Args ↑

uris

an Array of Strings

Description ↑

Attempts to parse and merge a set of URIs

 
               # File uri/common.rb, line 235
def join(*uris)
  uris[0] = convert_to_uri(uris[0])
  uris.inject :merge
end
make_regexp(schemes = nil) click to toggle source

returns Regexp that is default self.regexp, unless schemes is provided. Then it is a Regexp.union with self.pattern

 
               # File uri/common.rb, line 274
def make_regexp(schemes = nil)
  unless schemes
    @regexp[:ABS_URI_REF]
  else
    /(?=#{Regexp.union(*schemes)}:)#{@pattern[:X_ABS_URI]}/x
  end
end
parse(uri) click to toggle source

Args ↑

uri

String

Description ↑

parses uri and constructs either matching URI scheme object (FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, LDAP, LDAPS, or MailTo) or URI::Generic

Usage ↑

p = URI::Parser.new
p.parse("ldap://ldap.example.com/dc=example?user=john")
#=> #<URI::LDAP:0x00000000b9e7e8 URL:ldap://ldap.example.com/dc=example?user=john>
